** Package changed: ubiquity (Ubuntu) => osinfo-db (Ubuntu) ** Description changed:
+ After investigation, the issue is that we only get 1Gb allocated in GNOME Boxes for new ubuntu installations, which is starving and getting OOM. + The requirements has been bumped with pre-seeded snaps in ubuntu 16.04, 18.04 and 18.10 and 2Gb is needed to end the installation process. + + We weren't impacted previously as shipping an old osinfo-db version, + hich didn't have the distribution specific requirements, and thus, + allbacked to GNOME Boxes default which is 2Gb. + + + ------ + Following "Install (entire disk) in Ubuntu Desktop amd64 in Cosmic Daily" test case, on 20181003.1 desktop live image. Using Qemu (host is an up to date cosmic) and starting in ubiquity-only mode: - when clicking on continue on the <…> step, the UI is freezing for a minute, then GNOME Shell vanishes, no more decoration to ubiquity windows, black background (reproduced twice). See attached picture. - I was still able to proceed thus, but on the "who are you" page, no more control, the cursor is changing on text element to show the text cursor, but no caret. - no crash found in /var/crash, but the GNOME Shell process is marked as defunct. Can anyone reproduce it? I was able to reliably reproduce it on 3 consecutive boots here. Note: there is also the fact that if I set focus to another window than qemu and going back to the qemu window, no way to type/click in ubiquity or live session. This may have an impact above on the cursor issue. Nevertheless, I have took great care to not change focus in the above use case. ** Description changed: After investigation, the issue is that we only get 1Gb allocated in GNOME Boxes for new ubuntu installations, which is starving and getting OOM.
